WTB: Reginaphone turntable

[fonograph]

Would prefer an original (of course), but would certainly settle for a repro. Or a lead for someone who can make one.

Bob,
I believe that Al Meekins sells good reproductions. You can google him to get his website.

No luck there......I wonder...maybe I could make one?

Columbia made most of the phonograph parts for Regina- could a standard Grafonola turntable be modified?

[fonograph]

That's what I'm thinking....the original that I've seen is a standard 10" CI turntable with "about" 2" extension on the spindle to clear the sides of the box. A decent welder could modify an orignial columbia turntable in just a few minutes.....now....if I can find an original turntable...

Contact George Vollema- or just about anyone. Because of tone arm breakage there are lots of Columbia disc machine parts available.

I do not claim expertise about Reginaphones but I own a complete one and an incomplete one. The complete one plays 11" (? not sure of exact size) disks and has a 10" turntable. The incomplete one plays 15" disks and the only phonograph part included was a 12" turntable. Is that correct for the larger machine? I have extra 12" Columbia turntables if that helps you. I believe Regina used Columbia parts for their machines and the turntable was modified with an extension. Jerry Blais

Thanks Jerry B. I'm headed down to Fla for the Phono Show Friday....I hope to find a 10" there. If not, I'll let you know...thanks Bob
